(e.g. German "Umlaute" were not displayed properly.) Made is possible to reparent todos in KO/Pi. Use contextmenu or keys (look at Help-Keys + Colors) for that. +Added the missing Sync-Howto and WhatsNew to the packages. + +KO/Pi on Linux desktop can now sync with KDE desktop. +That means: When using KO/Pi on Linux desktop for syncing with +KDE desktop and the Zaurus, the Zaurus can be synced now +with all KDE-Calendar resources, not only with one local file. +(That makes it possible to sync the Zaurus with the +calendar data on a Kolab server) + +KA/Pi syncing with KDE desktop will be available in the next version. + + ********** VERSION 1.9.7 ************ KO/Pi - KA/Pi on Windows: Now a directory can be defined by the user, where the application/config data should be saved. Define your desired path in the evironment variable MICROKDEHOME before starting KO/Pi or KA/Pi. An easy Kx/Pi to Kx/Pi syncing is now possible (it is called Pi-Sync) via network. Please look at the Sync Howto. Exporting of calendar data and contacts to mobile phones is now possible. The SyncHowto is updated with information howto access/sync mobile phones. Please look at the Sync Howto. Now KO/Pi and KA/Pi on the Zaurus can receive data via infrared directly. Please disable Fastload for the original contact/calendar applications and close them. KO/Pi and KA/Pi must be running in order to receive the data. (KO/Pi and KA/Pi are always running if Fastload for them is enabled!) In the KA/Pi details view are now the preferred tel. numbers displayed on top of the other data ( emails/tel.numbers/addresses) Fixed some syncing problems in KA/Pi. Added font settings for the KA/Pi details view. Added fields "children's name" and "gender" to KA/Pi. Made searching in KA/Pi better: Now the first item in a view is selected after a search automatically and the views can be scrolled up/down when the search input field has the keyboard focus. And, of course, fixed a bunch of reported bugs in KO/Pi and KA/Pi. ********** VERSION 1.9.6 ************ Changes in the external application communication on the Zaurus in order to use less RAM when the apps are running. First syncing of addressbooks (KA/Pi) is possible. ********** VERSION 1.9.5a ************ Fixed a bug in KO/Pi in the SharpDTM sync of version 1.9.5. Fixed some small bugs. KA/Pi shows now the birthday in summary view. Now OM/Pi and KA/Pi are using the date format defined in KO/Pi for displaying dates. ********** VERSION 1.9.5 ************ There is still no Addressbook syncing! New in 1.9.5: Many bugfixes. Better searching in KA/Pi. You can configure in KA/Pi if you want to search only after <return> key pressed. Better mail downloading in OM/Pi. First experimental alpha version of sync of KO/Pi with mobile phones. See gammu documentation for supported phones. You need to install the package kammu_1.9.5_arm.ipk for sync of KO/Pi with mobile phones. kammu_1.9.5_arm.ipk needs libbluetooth and libsdp. Quick hint how to use: NOTE: MOBILE PHONE SYNC IS EXPERIMENTAL! Install kammu_1.9.5_arm.ipk , libbluetooth and libsdp. Create syncprofile - mobile device Remove entry for model. (Leave empty ). Enable infrared on Zaurus and your Phone. Sync. To get a more detailed log, start kopi from konsole. ********** VERSION 1.9.4 ************ This is the version 1.9.4 of KDE-Pim/Pi for the Zaurus. WARNING: PLEASE BACKUP ALL YOUR DATA! We have changed a lot and maybe there are some unknown problems. SYNC HANDLING HAS CHANGED! Such that, if you sync now with an already synded device, you will duplicated entries after the first sync. (This change was introduced to make it possible to sync with mobile phones, which will be available later (maybe in 4 weeks). You need the kmicrokdelibs_1.9.4_arm.ipk as a base for the other programs. If you get the error: "Install only possible in main memory", just try it again to install it on SD card. That worked for me. And it was reported that rebooting Qtopia did help in this case as well. As programs are available: KO/Pi (korganizer ipk) - a calendar program. KA/Pi (kaddressbook ipk ) - an addressbook OM/Pi (kopiemail ipk ) an email program with pop/smtp and IMAP support. An alarm notification program ( korganizer-alarm ipk ) for KO/Pi that notifies you about alarms, even if the Zaurus is in suspend mode. (If you do not see an icon in the taskbar after installing korganizer-alarm, please restart Qtopia) All the applications are installed in a "Pim" TAB. If this TAB is new on your system, you can get an icon in this TAB by installing pim_TAB_icon_1.9.4_arm.ipk All the application are integrated. Such that you can choose in KO/Pi the attendees of a meeting from the addresses in KA/Pi. When you click in KA/Pi on the email address, OM/Pi is started to write the mail. HINT: If you install KPhone/Pi 0.9.7, it will be called, if you click in KA/Pi on a phone number. What's new? SYNC HANDLING HAS CHANGED! Such that, if you sync now with an already synded device, you will duplicated entries after the first sync. (This change was introduced to make it possible to sync with mobile phones, which will be available later (maybe in 4 weeks). New in OM/Pi: When copying(i.e. downloading mails) , you can specify, that only mails of a given size should be downloaded. Added mail copy possibility for selected mails. New in KO/Pi: French is now available for KO/Pi. Choose menu:Actions - Configure:TAB locale Syncing has changed. Phone sync available soon. Not much changes, I cannot remember them ... New in KA/Pi: Beaming possible. Sharp DTM readonly access possible( create a new DTM resource ); Better searching possible. Search is performed only after pressing the return key. Use wildcard * to specify parts of a name. Better name/email selection dialog (called from KO/Pi or OM/Pi). In this dialog, now searching is possible. Like in KA/Pi, use return key and wildcard * . A big improvement is the new management of the contact access. In version 1.9.3, every application was using their own addressbook access data. That means, the addressbook was loaded up to three times in the memory, when accessed by KA/Pi, KO/Pi and OM/Pi. That was wasting of memory, if you had several hundreds of contacts. Now only KA/Pi accesses the addressbook. If KO/Pi or OM/Pi want to get some name/email data, they request KA/Pi to open the name/email selection dialog and send it back to them. If you click on an attendee in a meeting, its contact data is displayed in KA/Pi directly. That means, if KO/Pi or OM/Pi want to access contact data, KA/Pi is started first. New in the KO/Pi alarm applet: Configure your own timer popup menu! (Text and minutes for timer countdown) Just edit the file (yourhomedir)/.kopialarmtimerrc and start/stop a timer to get a new menu with the data of this file. ********** VERSION 1.9.3 ************ 1) Now KO/Pi on Windows imports directly the calendar data of an installed Outlook. Should work with OL version >= 2000. ********** VERSION 1.9.2 ************ 1) KDE-Pim/Pi has got a new member: KmicroMail (KM/Pi) is a mail program, which can handle IMAP and POP mail access. It is based on Opie-Mail v3. All dependencies to the Opie libraries ar removed, such that no additional Opie lib is needed. It is already integrated in KO/Pi and KA/Pi. It it now available for the Zaurus,probably it will be available for other platforms later. Hint: Create your own contact (name + email) in KA/Pi, select this contact and choose menu: Settings - Set Who Am I. Now the settings of this contact are used as the sender data in KM/Pi. 2) KDE-Pim/Pi is split up in five different packages now precompiled for Sharp Zaurus: --kmicrokdelibs_1.9.2_arm.ipk The libs are needed for any of the following programs: --kaddressbook_1.9.2_arm.ipk --kmicromail_1.9.2_arm.ipk --korganizer_1.9.2_arm.ipk Independ from that, there is the alarm applet available for KO/Pi, which also offers quick access for a new mail or showing the addressbook.: --korganizer-alarm_1.9.2_arm.ipk Independend means, that the alarm applet does not need any of the libs or programs above to run. |
